The Ostrich Eggbot Kit is an open-source hardware+software project.


For the rest, you can download the Ostrich Egg-bot hardware reference design here (60 kB .zip archive).

The reference design includes the following files:

  • Bill of materials, CSV format
  • 1/4" plywood chassis and pen-arm parts, Inkscape SVG
  • 1/2" plywood parts, Inkscape SVG
  • 1/4" Poplar pen-arm part, Inkscape SVG
  • 0.020" delrin part, Inkscape SVG
  • 0.010" acetal copolymer, Inkscape SVG

Most of the wood and plastic parts can be cut by standard laser-cutting processes, or other machine tools at your discretion. The Ostrich Egg-Bot production chassis is CNC-cut from 1/4" plywood, that is then laser engraved to provide the markings. The three 1/2" parts are cut with a CNC wood router.


The Ostrich Egg-bot was designed in Inkscape.
